Dalawang sikreto ang bumabalot sa kasal ni Elle. Una, kailanman ay hindi siya tinanggap ng pamilya Cortez bilang manugang. Bago pa man ang kasal, niloko ng buong pamilya si Brandon para pirmahan ang divorce agreement nang hindi nito alam. Pitong taon lang ang itinakda para sa pagsasama nilang dalawa. Pangalawa ay palihim siyang nagsilang ng anak na babae nang hindi nalalaman ni Brandon. Sa loob ng pitong taon ng pagsasama, ni minsan ay hindi nalaman ng lalaki na mayroon siyang limang taong gulang na anak. Akala ni Elle ay sapat na ang pitong taon para lumambot ang puso ni Brandon. Akala niya, darating din ang araw na mamahalin siya nito kahit kaunti. Pero tatlong buwan bago magkabisa ang divorce agreement, saka niya nalaman ang pinakamasakit na sikreto. May ibang babae sa puso ni Brandon. At ang babaeng iyon ay walang iba kundi si Janica, ang itinuring nitong nakababatang kapatid noon. Parang isang nakakatawang biro ang pitong taon niyang paghihintay. Pitong taon ng pagpapanggap na masaya. Pitong taon ng pagmamahal na siya lang ang may dala. Tahimik na napangiti si Elle, pero wala nang init ang mga mata niya. Para na lang iyong abo matapos masunog. Hindi na rin niya binalak sabihin kay Brandon ang tungkol sa anak nila. Tutal, malapit na rin namang matapos ang lahat. Mas mabuti nang tuluyan na siyang mawala sa buhay nito. Malayang ibabalik niya ang pagiging asawa. At pati pagiging ama ay hindi na rin niya ipagpipilitan pa.

Back in college, Damian Cross and Alexandra “Alex” Vega shared a reckless kind of passion—one built on stolen nights, whispered names, and a promise that it was nothing serious. No commitments. No future. Just fire. Pero hindi alam ni Damian, that fire left something behind—twins. A boy and a girl Alex raised on her own, telling them their father died years ago. While Damian built his ruthless empire and became one of the world’s most powerful billionaires, Alex buried their past and became a decorated soldier. Until one mission went wrong, leaving her unit dead… and turning her into one of the most sought-after bodyguards in the country. Seven years later, Alex’s world shatters again—her daughter is diagnosed with leukemia. Desperate for money for the surgery, Alex takes the job she almost rejected: protect a billionaire being hunted by enemies. She nearly drops the file when she sees his name. Damian Cross. Damian, on the other hand, isn’t thrilled either. He laughs in disbelief when he’s told his new head of security is a woman—until she walks in. The same fierce eyes. The same fire. The same woman he thought he’d lost forever. Now, Damian must face the truth: the bodyguard sworn to protect him is the only woman he’s ever let too close… and she’s hiding the biggest secret of all—his children. As bullets close in, old wounds reopen, and sparks reignite, Alex must choose: keep the walls she built for seven years, or let Damian back in—and risk breaking more than just her own heart.
